The pregnancy kit leverages saliva-based hormone detection tech pioneered by Salignostics and delivers fast and accurate results.

As diabetes grows more rampant and threatens to affect one in three Americans in less than four decades, it is no wonder that extensive research is being done to treat and prevent the condition. In Israel, two researchers have made significant advancement in treating type I and detecting type II diabetes.

While schizophrenia has been recognized as a medical condition decades ago, very little is known about the condition and treatment is only successful in 50% of cases. A recent Israeli study has shed light on new ways of discovering and treating the condition.

With no known cure, Alzheimer's Disease is still the most common form of dementia and a leading cause of death among people 65 and older. Now, a team of Israeli researchers have made progress with a finding that may help diagnose the disease as early as at the age of 30, and treat it accordingly.

Until today, schizophrenia could only be physically diagnosed after a patient's death. For the first time, Israeli researchers have found a way to biologically detect schizophrenia by analyzing tissue from the patient's nose.

Until now, discovering genetic mutations in humans required full gene sequencing. However, a new method developed at Hadassah Medical Center can reveal harmful mutations that indicate women at high risk of developing breast cancer.

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and ALS, are almost impossible to predict before symptoms appear. Israeli company NeuroQuest may be able to predict these diseases with its much-anticipated technology based on biomarker measurement.

Israeli startup Umoove created a hands-free solution for mobile devices. Their algorithm, using the mobile camera, can detect facial and eye movements in real time and operate functions such as dialing or launching applications.

A researcher collaboration between scientists at University of Colorado–Denver and Technion–Israel Institute of Technology has successfully tested a gold nanoparticle (GNP)-based sensor that can detect lung cancer (LC) markers in a patient’s breath.

Engineers led atTel Aviv University have developed a new way to stop movie and video pirates uising “video DNA matching,” which can create a unique fingerprint for every movie on the planet.
